Yeah I feel the same. I think a traditional "on rails" Starfox wouldn't really do well in the current market. A racing game that focuses on speed and multiplayer seems like a better fit. I imagine it will still have a traditional Starfox feel with enemies and stuff but with an added layer of racing to pump up the adreneline.
Well, just like with FighterZ, i'm sure the Switch version will be announced later (and release later too).
They're probably doing the smart thing. Bring a Switch version later that will sell a lot and get more people to double dip.
I'd say it's a good thing since we don't really have many racing games in space or the air that I can think of. It feels like the correct evolution of the formula.
Ah, you're referring to my post. What do I think the game will be? Exactly how you described it before. My question is: why exactly wouldn't DK be able to fit within a Star Fox style game? While the gameplay in GP would likely be just like a regular Star Fox game, i'm expecting the tone to be a bit different, and I could easily see a few guest characters sparingly make it in. As fellow animal characters, DK would be the easiest series to include.
Do you have a better name? Star Fox Fucking Retro Garbage sounds better to me.
Even something super boring like "Lylat Tour" is a more appealing name to me. "Retro Studios™ working on a fucking Star Fox™ racing game" does have a good ring to it though.
They're clearly saving Dillon for Diddy Kong Racing 2. Right alongside Rusty and Mallo.
We (mainly I) discussed this on GAF. At the time I was wondering if Retro was working on Diddy King Racing 2.
Yeah, I remember reading a few threads about some old DKR2 rumors when I lurked on Gaf. There was some speculation about Monster Games and Retro working on it together, as the former worked on the DKCR 3DS port and assisted Retro with Tropical Freeze.
There was this.
Yeah, that blog post is exactly what I based my earlier post on (it also mentions Mallo and Rusty).
It sounds so right too. Those types of characters are who you would represent in a Diddy King Racing game.
I really hope they revisit that idea in the future. Gimme a Nintendo roster with charcters like:
These are some sick ass designs.look at these guys. that's a full Space Animals team ready to go
looking forward to the intense rivalry between Nomad and Octoman
Here we do as Metroid has it for the sake of conversation and nothing happens
The vast majority of Sony games go for exactly the same type of audience, which is exactly the kind of audience that abounds in forums like this one. It is difficult that if you like TLOU you do not like God of War or you are not interested in Horizon Zero Dawn.
SF-Zero G Racing
Is it a lie that most of Sony's big games go for the demography of the adult core audience that wants games with realistic graphics and weight in the story?
